Configuration with the Micropulse Configuration Tool
6.1 Micropulse Configuration Tool
NOTICE
Interference in function
Configuration with the Micropulse Configuration Tool
while the system is running may result in malfunctions.
►
Stop the system before configuration.
The BTL7-A/E… USB-Configurable can be configured
quickly and simply on a PC using the Micropulse
Configuration Tool PC software.
The most important features include:
– Online display of the current position of the magnets
– Graphical support for setting the functions and curves
– Display of information about the connected BTL
– Selection of displayed number formats and units
– Possible to reset to the factory settings
– Demo mode without a connected BTL
The PC software and associated manual can
be found in the Internet under
www.balluff.com.

6.3 Configuration options
Prerequisites
– USB communication box connected to the BTL and
PC.
– Software correctly installed.
– BTL connected to the power supply.
– Magnet(s) on BTL.
Magnets and outputs
– One or two magnets can be selected (factory setting:
one magnet)
– Two outputs can be assigned independently
Output functions
– Position: Position in the measuring range.
– Velocity: Velocity of the magnet. The sign indicates the
direction of movement. Movement from the null point
to the end point is output with a positive sign.
Movement from the end point to the null point is output
with a negative sign. Max. detectable velocity range
from –10 to +10 m/s.
– Velocity (no sign): Velocity of the magnet. The
direction of movement cannot be read. Max.
detectable velocity range from 0 to 10 m/s.
– Differential position: Distance between two magnets.
Selection is only possible if two magnets have been
selected.
Freely configurable curve
– Null and end points can be read (teach-in) or specified
with the mouse.
– For position, the distance between the null point and
end point must be at least 4 mm (0.15 inches) and
100 mm/s (4 inches/s) for velocity.
– The curve can be inverted or copied from the other
output.
– The limits can be adjusted to the measuring range.
– The error value can be set in accordance with the
limits.
Boundary conditions for two magnets
– Two magnets can only be selected if the nominal length
is ≥ 90 mm.
– The distance between two magnets must be ≥ 65 mm.
Locking the calibration device
The function to manually adjust the BTL with the calibration
device can be locked, making configuration only possible
with the PC software.
DANGER
Uncontrolled system movement
When starting up, if the position measuring system is
part of a closed loop system whose parameters have not
yet been set, the system may perform uncontrolled
movements. This could result in personal injury and
equipment damage.
►
The system must be taken out of operation before
configuration.
►
The BTL may only be connected to the
communication box for configuration.
►
The communication box must be removed after
configuration.
